Doing the unicode thing



I was hoping somebody could straighten me out on a couple of points to do 
with unicode.

I've got the core truetype fonts installed, some (all?) of which are unicode 
fonts, but I've noticed that when I list them with xlsfonts, they show up for 
all the 8-bit encodings iso8859-* etc, rather than iso10646-1. Is there 
something I can do to make them appear under iso10646?

Another thing I was wondering about... 'unicode_start' puts the current vc in 
to UTF-8 mode, I was wondering how would you make that the default? so that 
all the vcs would be switched to unicode during startup?

Finally, where would be a good place to set the LANG variable. Currently I'm 
setting it in '/etc/profile' and also in a file '98environment' which I added 
to '/etc/X11/Xsession.d' (I'm using woody if that makes a difference). Does 
that sound like I'm doing it right?

Any hints insights would be gratefully received.
